now it may not fit in a black deck but if I had to name a card that's better than murder off the top of my head, I'd pick "Krenko, Mob Boss."
You really fought for that one
I would play krenko in every deck
Did you know, you can exile each creature target player owns when you hit them with the infinite goblins created by “Krenko, Mob Boss.” Way better than Murder!
The card name helps me remember what it does though.
True
I used to go by that rule, but now the homicide investigators won't believe me.
😂😂😂 great comment
Hard disagree on Heartless Act. So many cards use counters now. I'd rather pay the extra mana than have a dead card in my hand.
STOP playing Murder. It's a crime
Never started, still running the OG Rend Flesh
@@hintofinsanity yeesh
Replace every Murder in your deck with a Grave Titan instead
It's so simple
STOP whatever you were doing before and START your videos with that more often. LOVE IT
Before I watch the video
Feed the swarm
Infernal grasp
Snuff out
Cut down
Price of fame
Bitter triumph
Deadly rollick
Sheoldreds edict
Baleful mastery
Defile
Dismember
Oubliette
I'd still consider these better than murder:
Go for the throat
Doomblade
Terror
Some other options are Go for the Throat, or Doom Blade. Both two mana instants with some restrictions.
It's called murder. I think outside of precons, that's a part of why people play it.
I can see murder going in a deck where the theme is oops all kill spells lol
the problem is that most decks playing murder will also play the rest. singleton needs the great cards AND the LESS strictly betters sometimes.
The sign went to Australia!
This is my favorite video form, one-to-one comparisons of long list of similar cards!
I really love eaten alive in aristocrats decks, 1 black mana and sacrifice a creature EXILE a creature or planes walker. Guess what I'm in aristocrats I wanted to sacrifice a creature anyway. And though not ideal I could also just pay 5 mana if I didn't have a creature to sacrifice so it isn't a dead card. It's a common that costs like 10 cents.
“Hammer time!”
It's crazy that Shelodred's Edict is $4. Is it because it's an all-star in Standard?
Kinda yeah. Paper standard is starting to return and it MIGHT see Pioneer play but I'm not 100% sure
It sees play in standard, pioneer, modern, and cEDH.
That cards deadly
Soul shatter is where it's at
Great video again. Y’all murdered it
Heartless Act works great with removing Indestructible Counters. (Mondrak for example)
I don’t use Murder anyway, but either way there are a lot of even better alternatives for my Kuon deck specifically here. Some of them I just forgot about and some I can’t believe I didn’t consider them before.
Hagra Mauling costing 4 is fine in Saruman, the White Hand. If you don’t need the land then it can Amass 4.
Make an Example is one of my favorite cards in commander - and for only 4 mana
Didn't even consider it for the two monoblack decks I've built so far but I've debated whether it would make sense in K'rrik (not CEDH). Still much better options but 1 mana and 4 life maybe makes it more palatable. :P
I’m honestly surprised go for the throat wasn’t here
Baleful Mastery! You can pay the student cost and give someone a card. Even better, it doesn't have to be the person who's permanent you exiled.
Politics!
Very good suggestions, but i just think that the simplicity of murder is the draw to add it. Of course there are better options but i dont think murder is useless
First time hearing anyone other than me talk about Star format. Needs more love
I have a dimir detective/assassins deck only deck that has murder I couldn’t help myself
That sounds like a word where you really wanna get demonitised
It’s deadly rolckick or however you spell it. It’s always the free spells
Idk why the moxfield tie in made me laugh 😂
Lethal scheme has put me from a losing position into a winning position every time i cast it. Its basically 0 mana draw 4 kill a creature in graveyard decks. I play it in sidisi and wilhelt
Lethal Scheme is my favorite removal spell in commander. It rarely costs mana and it does so much; graveyard synergies, discard synergies, +1/+1 synergies, draw synergies, combat trick. It's so good.
Was anyone surprised Murder got reprinted in Murders at Karlov Manor?
Feed the swarm hits creature or enchantments
Yeah... but sorcery.
@@aarlavaan still does the job at 2 mana
@@Npocommander sure. For a lot of things. but it can't hit creature lands, can't prevent you from taking combat damage, and potentially hits you with a significant amount of life loss. The flexibility of also being able to hit enchantments is nice... But being a sorcery REALLY hurts it.
@@aarlavaan I play on mtgo using Auto yield those don't really matter
@@aarlavaanYeah, but color pie. If you're in Green or White with black, it's useless. Mono black though, different story
I'm definitely taking mines out
i play it in my rogue and assassin decks because of flavor
The only purpose for Murder is for WotC to put it in a Precon so you have an easy and obvious card to swap out
Nitpicking Nerds trying to murdah Murder with this video.
wow since when is Snuff out worth 7 bucks as a common thats awesome
Only 10?!?!?!? There's probably a hundred better cards than Murder!
I love soul shatter. Run that thing in EVERY deck that has black in it.
It's been THAT good
great opening imo
4:47 me with only one friend 😢
The gang’s all here 🖐🏻
Star is the first time I've heard about this
Why no Walk the Plank?
Murder is better in chair tribal
Why destroy when you can exile ! Soul transfert, ashes to ashes ( 2 for the price of one ), eaten alive 1 black mana. No doubt murder is bad.
Heartless act is not a better alternative. Sure it's 1 less mana but I played H.A. and i definitely got screwed by cards having counters 6/10 times
Not to mention targets you would want to destroy like Kalonian Hydra aren't affected by Heartless act.
Wow strong stance on murder.
Your signs upside backwards
Undaunted is a verry underused ability. I much prefer more of this and less free spells.
Loved the video. Glad I got to watch it before the algorithm flags and removes 😂
I’ve literally never seen anyone ever play murder in commander lol is it that common? I see you guys mention it a lot
It's in 3% of black decks on EDHREC! (60,000)

I like the format of "here are better cards to play instead of x" and going through the range of budgets as well. Awesome 👍
I play murder simply bc its called murder lol. Fun.
Ugh fine ill play murder
But are those card arts better than Murders?
Murder? Sorry, i just play Shelob and bite spells.
member when terror got replaced with dark banishing cuz Type 2 was invented. no, good stay there.
Listen I know there’s better cards but no other card let me laugh like an insane Goofy while saying Murder
Murder is bad!
AGREED
Why not make a video of why not to play a popular card
Lol. Murder poopoo
I want to know if Mia have only fans.
Here early !!
It’s a crime worse than murder to not watch these nerds 🤓
First one here!!!! :O
First!
